ABSTRACT
Three different full coverage types of occlusal devices were used in the present study to evaluate their effects on patients with myofacial dysfunction syndrome [MPD]. It was found that the hard acrylic device had more significant therapeutic effect for relieving pain of TMJ and masticatory muscles compared with soft resilience and combination [hard and soft] devices. On the other hand, no one of these devices had a significant effect on the elimination of TMJ clicking at the end of final evaluation period
